@tweenies: "Have finally decided to use this heap of carp to do me listings...
The way I've been doing it until now is to have an Excel spreadsheet with
the bones of my HTML template in, so all I need to do is add the title, two
or three lines of description, the picture and the postage and bobs your
wotsit.
I then copy and paste it into a bigger HTML template and use that for the
description, but I'm gearing the ops up to a point where I'm looking to
speed things up a bit.
I've figured out fiddling with exporting and reimporting csv files on a test
basis, changing prices, postage, categories etc, but am hitting a few probs:
firstly, when I paste the big description into Excel it show the html as a
webpage, wibbling all over cells all over the place.  Is there any way of
switching this off?
Is there any way in turbolister to load the template with hyphens or
something instead of commas and then do a bulk change on the final document
to get acceptable English back again?
Suspect the answer is no to both, but any help would be appreciated

Why not 
a) just create a few 'templates'in T/L?  Copy into whatever created
T/L  category you want (makes for ease of tracking) then just tart
each one up a bit - ooopppssss ... sorry .. I meant make individul
as need be. Keep the opriginal template(s) in a folder of their own
for safekeeping. T/L will let you make duplicate copies.
OR:
b) make a few templates in T/L. Then export to CSV and work on them if
ya like and import back? eeeekkkkkk!
b) seems like a lot of hard work though when T/L can pretty well hold
all the stuff.
Sledgehammers and nuts come to mind. I like the KISS method. Less room
for error. And backup / save database (she says, knowing she don't do
it herself).

didn't realise you could create your own templates in TL (as I said, I've
only just started with it), but that sounds like to route to go down
I'll give that a go :-)
thanks!
